Thinking a little more about your response (and sarcasm duly noted), I
think you may have missed the real point I was trying to make. Text
related to higher-level actions (phases in this case) should be indented
*more* than text related to subsidiary actions (steps). Hence, if the
leaders are distinct, they should be reversed from current practice;
bigger "steps" (phases) should have shorter leaders, smaller "steps"
(steps) should have longer leaders.
But you didn't respond to that part of my comment, so I have no idea
whether that point was noted.
Cheers,
